Star Wars Launch Bay, Walkthrough attraction in Bay Lake, Florida, United States

Star Wars Launch Bay is a walkthrough attraction at Disney's Hollywood Studios in Florida, entered beneath a long black sign with clipped corners reading "STAR WARS LAUNCH BAY" in white capitals, with a smaller panel crediting Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Inside are Star Wars props, costumes and character greeting areas.

Announced at the D23 Expo on August 15, 2015, the walkthrough opened at Disneyland on November 16, 2015 and at Disney's Hollywood Studios on December 1, 2015. The Orlando version closed on March 16, 2020 and reopened on July 17, 2022; in July 2025 Disney announced the Hollywood Studios site would close and reopen in 2026 as part of The Walt Disney Studios Lot.

The attraction is a walkthrough, not a show: visitors pass through rooms holding Star Wars props and models, and can meet characters in greeting sessions. Merchandise tied to the films is sold on site. The sign above the entrance reads "Star Wars Launch Bay", with a smaller panel crediting Hewlett Packard Enterprise as presenter.

The attraction is a walkthrough with prop displays, character greetings and merchandise sales under one roof. The Orlando version closed on March 16, 2020 and its building served as a Relaxation Station where guests could remove face coverings while staying physically distanced; it reopened on July 17, 2022.

The sign above the entrance is a long hexagon with clipped corners: white capital letters "STAR WARS" and "LAUNCH BAY" on a black field, edged by a thin red line, with a smaller panel below reading "PRESENTED BY" beside the green Hewlett Packard Enterprise rectangle. It hangs over a railing of horizontal bars.
